No, I am not worried about 'declining' birth rates, I accept them as post-modern birth rates, the birth rates that naturally happen once the conditions are set that children can be expected to survive to adulthood reliably and that women are allowed to be educated and become full citizens.

Loomer spent weeks posting racist stereotypes about Indians on X then flew to India anyway. Rajdeep Sardesai looked her dead in the eye & said “you’re brazenly racist and Islamophobic.” She had no answers. Just tears.

U.S. mainstream media, take notes. This is accountability journalism.

One year ago today, Canada hit the jackpot by electing the most qualified Prime Minister this country has ever had — and arguably one of the most qualified in the world. One of the kindest people in politics today.

He has made us nothing but proud to be Canadians.

🇨🇦 HAPPY 1-YEAR CARNEYVERSARY! 🇨🇦

No amount of spin from Trump and his lackeys can cover up the fact that Americans shelled out an extra $1.5 BILLION for gas this past week because of his disastrous war with Iran.

E. Jean Carroll, one of my personal heroes, took on Trump and won.

She’s one of the bravest people I’ve met.

She shared some thoughts on Trump and Epstein’s awful friendship.

Trump practically told our allies to f-off — that we didn’t need them, that the U.S. had already “won.”

Now he’s begging them for help.

Quebec Tories sour on Cherry nomination as party pushes Order of Canada petition | CBC News Opposition is mounting among Quebec's federal Conservatives to their own party's push to award the Order of Canada to controversial hockey commentator Don Cherry.

Send this bigot packing.

Canada and Quebec have enough of those already without adding Cherry's sorry ass to the mix.

Kingsland mother charged with murder after taking abortion pill A woman from Kingsland, Georgia, is being charged with murder after she took an abortion pill and gave birth to an infant who died a few hours later.

31 year old Alexia Moore has been charged with murder for using the abortion pill to end her pregnancy.

Georgia has also charged her with possession of a dangerous drug & possession of a class two controlled substance.

They’re criminalizing pregnancy.

They want to control our bodies.

BREAKING: Trump deploys a Marine Expeditionary Unit to Iran. About 2,500 Marines, armored infantry, artillery, and an amphibious assault ship are moving into a war already spiraling.

If this isn’t pre-staging for boots on the ground, what is?

And the way Jen Psaki is dragging Trump for filth 🔥

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

What the U.S. Government Is Dismissing That Could Seed a Bird Flu Pandemic Egg producers suspect bird flu is traveling through the air. After a disastrous Midwestern outbreak early this year, we tested that theory and found that where the wind blew, the virus followed. Vacci...

To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines.

The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.

Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: “The minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

#LongCOVIDAwarenessDay

Learning to wear a #respie when out and about seems like a big ask… but once you get in the habit, you hardly think about it at all.

Prevention is still the best option. You’ll not miss your energy, tastebuds, ability to concentrate etc… until it is gone.

About 15 years ago, someone got promoted suggesting that the parachutes on the KC135 wasted space. They were removed.

Dumb stupid idea then. Could they have saved this crew? Who knows. But would be nice to have the option.
